"That's the first time I signed signed a waterboard". Yes, you heard that right: the former Vice President signing a kit dedicated to a form of torture.

"Sure!" Cheney said. "That's a first". Showtime has been pimping a new comedy it dubbed as "perhaps the most risky show in the history of television", and it appears as though that is what Sacha has been working on.

Another preview of the show was released on July 4th, with the British actor celebrating America's Independence Day by playing an old vlog in which President Donald Trump mocked Cohen for supposedly not being amusing.

Cheney is well-known for his support of torture techniques applied by the United States as the country battled the war on terror in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks.

When Cohen's show was cryptically announced by Showtime last week, the network only described his character as being "shameless", "unhinged", and "cold-blooded".
